Chapter 3: Q.45 (page 218)

Use the following information to answer the next ten exercises. Forty-eight percent of all Californians registered voters prefer life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. Among Latino California registered voters, 55%prefer life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. 37.6%of all Californians are Latino. In this problem, let: 鈥� C = Californians (registered voters) preferring life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder. L = Latino Californians. Suppose that one Californian is randomly selected.

Find P(L).

Short Answer

Expert verified

P(L)=0.376

Step by step solution

01

Content Introduction

A set of outcomes of a random experiment can be defined as an event in probability. All possible outcomes of an experiment are represented by the sample space. In probability, there are various different sorts of events.

02

Content Explanation

There are two events:

C = Californians (registered voters) preferring life in prison without parole over the death penalty for a person convicted of first degree murder.

L = Latino Californians.

Given That,

P(C)=0.48P(L)=0.376

Thus,

P(L)=0.376

What is the probability of rolling a prime number of dots with a fair, six-sided die numbered one through six?

Write the symbols for the probability that a player is an outfielder and is a great hitter.

Write the symbols for the probability that a player is an infielder, given that the player is a great hitter.

Roll a fair, six-sided die. Let A = a prime number of dots is rolled. Let B = an odd number of dots is rolled. Then A = {2, 3, 5} and B = {1, 3, 5}. Therefore, A AND B = {3, 5}. A OR B = {1, 2, 3, 5}. The sample space for rolling a fair die is S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Draw a Venn diagram representing this situation.
